*Embroidered map. The Map of England and Wales by Ann Jennings Warne, A.D. 1786, needlework map of England, Wales, and part of Scotland and Ireland, showing also Arran, Isle of Man, Alderney, and part of Guernsey, Sark, and France, finely worked in cross stitch on linen, with the title, counties, principal towns, rocks and promontories, details of a shipwreck, and a scale all stitched in black, floral title border and boundary outlines in various colours, faded and toned, some small holes, 64 x 58.5cm (25.25 x 23ins), framed and glazed A particularly detailed example of a map sampler, with an interesting number of coastal locations named, for example: 'The Man and his Man'; 'Cow and Calf'; 'Bishop and his clerks'; 'Ireland's Eye'; 'Maidens'; 'The Spaw'; 'St Bees Hd'; 'Well Bank'; 'Kentish Knock'; 'Bobbs Nose'; 'Deadman Pt'. Of especial interest is the unusual mention of a shipwreck, stitched in black within a green border, off the north coast of Cornwall: 'Sir cloudsley shovel was wreck'd near this place A.D 1707'. The notoriously treacherous seas around the Isles of Scilly are the site of a great many shipwrecks which have occurred over the centuries; in fact there are 530 registered wrecks around the archipelago. The best known is probably the shipwrecking of the Association on 22nd October 1707. She was part of Sir Cloudesley Shovell's English Fleet that took part in the seige of Toulon and ran aground on the Gilstone Ledges near Bishop Rock, sinking along with three other ships, HMS Eagle, HMS Romney and HMS Firebrand. Nearly 2,000 sailors were lost that night, and the incident was recorded as one of the greatest maritime disasters in British history. Shovell's body and those of both his stepsons were all found in Porthellick Cove on St Mary's, almost seven miles from where the ship was wrecked. He was temporarily buried there, but later interred in Westminster Abbey. The tragedy excited much public interest and a number of stories sprang up surrounding it. Local legend has it that Shovell was alive when he reached the shore but was murdered by a woman for the sake of his priceless emerald ring, the woman apparently confessing on her deathbed 30 years later. Another legend alleges that a sailor (a Scilly native) tried to warn Shovell that the fleet was off course but Shovell had him hanged at the yardarm for inciting mutiny. The maker of this sampler was no doubt fascinated by the story of the wreck and its associated grisly tales, and although the Scillies are not shown, she determinedly stitched details of the wreck in the sea above Cornwall.
